Abstract
Electrostatic drift turbulence of the edge plasma in the CASTOR tokamak is studied numerically by using the Hasegawa-Wakatani equations. The fluctuati ons of plasma density and potential as well as the corresponding fluctuatio n-induced particle flux are calculated for regimes with various plasma polo idal flows. Results of numerical simulations axe in a reasonable agreement with experimental results.
